Our cottage was wonderful, with lots of different places to sit and enjoy the views across the valley or watch the birds in the garden. Our hosts David and Angela had phoned us before arrival to answer any questions, and then had provided a lovely welcome in the form of shortbread, flowers and wine, plus tea and coffee, which we really appreciated.

Our cottage was wonderful, with lots of different places to sit and enjoy the views across the valley or watch the birds in the garden. Our hosts David and Angela had phoned us before arrival to answer any questions, and then had provided a lovely welcome in the form of shortbread, flowers and wine, plus tea and coffee, which we really appreciated. We enjoyed the comfort and tranquility of the cottage and it's lovely setting in a small, picturesque village. It was extremely peaceful there, and there was information about the local area that was very helpful. The holiday sped by and we had a wonderful time in the local area including walking up tors and round a scenic reservoir, exploring the prehistoric settlement at Grimspound and a lovely cream tea in nearby Chagford.

“Lewishill Cottage is delightful and ...”

Lewishill Cottage is delightful and the views of the village and surrounding countryside (from the garden, living room and bedrooms) are idyllic. The owners had left a beautiful flower arrangement, wine and shortbread for our arrival, in addition to the more usual (but by no means expected) tea, coffee and milk, and David and Angela were very helpful before and during our holiday. For anyone bringing children or wanting to make their own entertainment rather than watching television there was a large assortment of board games etc. The cottage is ideally situated for walks and places of interest in Dartmoor and the coast is also within easy reach. We would thoroughly recommend a stay here.

“This was a truly beautiful cottage ...”

This was a truly beautiful cottage set in a "picture postcard" English village. The owners have taken the time to think of everything you might need (and more) during your stay. They also left some lovely flowers, wine and shortbread along with tea, coffee and milk for our arrival. The cottage is ideally placed for walks in Dartmoor and trips to the coast. A visit to Cornwall is also within easy reach. The views from the garden and the lounges are spectacular.

The property

This period cottage is situated at the end of a terrace in the Devon village of Dunsford on the edge of Dartmoor.

With rural views over the church and woodland on the steep sides of the pretty Teign Valley, this is a welcoming cottage for families or friends to enjoy.

Step down into the hall and then into the kitchen with dining area, or head into the cosy sitting room with its wood burning stove and TV.

Located up steps from the hall is a sunroom, a good spot to sit on a sunny day and perhaps play board games with the French windows thrown open to a terrace.

Open tread stairs lead up to the two pretty bedrooms which share a bathroom.

Outside, at the back, is a sloping garden with lawn and terrace with furniture and those same relaxing rural views.

Dunsford is picturesque, a tranquil village to wander between thatched cottages, visit the village inn and buy essentials from the shop.

A nature reserve is full of daffodils in spring, lining the banks of the River Teign at Steps Bridge, from where you can take lovely walks through woodland, as far as National Trust Castle Drogo or the village of Drewsteignton if you feel energetic.

This is a great place for golfers with three courses within five miles, and with Exeter just eight miles away, you have all the city entertainment you could wish for.

Lewishill Cottage is a smashing base for relaxing walks and the bright city lights.
